proper standards, which could lead to such devices not performing in the way
intended in a fire situation, which could lead to persons not being properly
notified of the fire, which could lead to delays in evacuation or moving to
a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons. Intent 2: To limit the probability that a fire will not be detected

not being promptly notified of the fire, which could lead to delays in evacuation
or moving to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons.
